Aviso de Campaña de seguridad 24S78/Campaña 24V957 de la NHTSA
Sr. Juan Pérez
Calle Principal 123
Ciudad, EE. UU. 12345
Este aviso se relaciona con su vehículo con el número de identificación del vehículo (VIN):
12345678901234567
Este aviso se le envía de acuerdo con la Ley Nacional de Seguridad de Tránsito y Vehículos
Motorizados de los EE. UU.
Ford
Motor Company ha determinado que existe un defecto relacionado con la seguridad del vehículo
en ciertos vehículos Super Duty año modelo 2020-2022 y en camiones Medium Duty 2021-2022
equipados con un motor 6.7L Diesel, incluido el suyo con el VIN que aparece más arriba.
Lamentamos esta situación y deseamos asegurarle que, con su ayuda, corregiremos el problema.
Nuestro compromiso, junto con el de su concesionario, es ofrecerle servicio y apoyo de alto nivel.
¿Cuál es el
problema?
La bomba de combustible de alta presión de su vehículo puede fallar, lo
que podría provocar un arranque prolongado sin que el motor llegue a
encender mientras el vehículo está estacionado y/o una pérdida de
potencia motriz durante la conducción. Antes de que se produzca la pérdida
de potencia motriz, es posible que se encienda la luz de verificación del
motor, que se presenten ruidos y/o que experimente un rendimiento
reducido del motor.
¿Qué riesgo existe?
Una pérdida de fuerza motriz aumenta el riesgo de choque.
¿Qué medidas
adoptarán Ford
y su
concesionario?
Las piezas y el software para reparar su vehículo ya se encuentran
disponibles. Ford
Motor Company ha autorizado a su concesionario a
actualizar el software del Módulo de control del tren motriz (PCM) y del
Módulo de control de la transmisión (TCM), y a verificar la presencia de
ciertos código de diagnóstico de falla (DTC) en el PCM que podrían
conducir a diagnósticos adicionales, sin cargo.
© Copyright 2026 Ford
Motor Company
¿Cuánto tiempo
tomará?
El tiempo necesario para esta reparación será menos de medio día. Sin
embargo, si hay ciertos DTC presentes en la PCM y se requieren
diagnósticos/reparaciones adicionales, y debido a los requisitos de
programación del servicio, es posible que su concesionario necesite su
vehículo durante un período de tiempo más prolongado.
¿Qué debe hacer?
Llame a su concesionario lo antes posible y solicite una cita de servicio
para llevar a cabo la campaña 24S78. Proporcione el VIN a su
concesionario, el cual está impreso debajo de sus datos al comienzo de
esta carta.
Ford
no ha emitido instrucciones para dejar de conducir su vehículo para
esta campaña de seguridad. Deberá ponerse en contacto con su
concesionario a fin de programar una cita para solucionar este problema lo
más pronto posible.
Si aún no tiene un distribuidor para realizar el servicio, puede acceder a
ford.com/support para conocer las direcciones de los distribuidores, ver
mapas y obtener las instrucciones para llegar.
Ford
Motor Company le recomienda realizar esta campaña de seguridad en
su vehículo. El propietario del vehículo es responsable de efectuar los
arreglos necesarios para llevar a cabo el trabajo. Ford
Motor Company
puede negar la cobertura en caso de que el vehículo hubiese sufrido daños
por no haber realizado la campaña de manera oportuna. Por lo tanto, le
solicitamos que realice esta campaña lo antes posible.
Tenga presente que: La ley federal exige que los arrendadores de
vehículos que reciban este aviso de campaña envíen una copia del
mismo al arrendatario en un plazo de diez días.
NOTA: Puede recibir información sobre las campañas y los programas de
satisfacción del cliente a través de la aplicación FordPass. La aplicación se
puede descargar a través de App Store o Google Play. Adicionalmente,
existen otras funciones como reserva de estacionamientos en determinados
lugares, además de control de ciertas funciones en el vehículo (bloqueo o
desbloqueo de puertas, arranque remoto) si así está equipado para permitir
el control.
Servicio de retiro y
entrega
El servicio complementario de retiro y entrega de vehículos también podría
estar disponible previa solicitud a través de los concesionarios que
participan. Su concesionario retirará el vehículo y lo regresará con la
reparación realizada.
¿Necesita un
vehículo de alquiler?
No se proporcionarán vehículos de alquiler si su vehículo únicamente
requiere la actualización del software del PCM y del TCM.
Si su concesionario determina que ciertos DTC están presentes en el PCM
y necesita que su vehículo permanezca durante la noche para reparaciones
prolongadas más allá de simplemente actualizar el PCM y el TCM, su
concesionario está autorizado a proporcionar un vehículo de alquiler para
su transporte personal sin cargo (excepto combustible y seguro) mientras
su vehículo esté en el concesionario para reparaciones. Comuníquese con
su concesionario para conocer las pautas y limitaciones.
© Copyright 2026 Ford
Motor Company
¿Ha pagado
anteriormente por
esta reparación?
Si pagó previamente por la reparación que aborda el problema que se
describe en esta carta, igualmente deberá realizar esta campaña, a fin de
asegurarse de que se instaló el software correcto.
Es posible que cumpla con los requisitos para recibir un reembolso por las
reparaciones pagadas previamente. Los reembolsos solo se otorgarán si
determinados DTC estaban presentes antes de cualquier reparación
relacionada con reparaciones de la bomba de combustible de alta presión y
con los procedimientos de purga de la bomba de combustible de baja
presión. Para comprobar si cumple con los requisitos y agilizar el
reembolso, proporcione el recibo de pago original a su concesionario.
También puede enviar las solicitudes de reembolso directamente a
Ford
Motor Company. Para solicitar un reembolso de Ford
, envíe la
solicitud de reembolso con toda la documentación que se solicita, incluido
el recibo original de la reparación (no envíe fotocopias), a Ford
Motor
Company, P.O. Box 6251, Dearborn, Michigan 48121-6251. El
procesamiento de las solicitudes de reembolso que se envían a esta
dirección puede tardar hasta 60 días. Se le regresará el recibo original.
Comuníquese con el Centro de asistencia de campañas de Ford
al 1-866436-7332 para obtener información detallada relacionada con la elegibilidad
para el programa de reembolso de Ford
y los requisitos de documentación.

propietario actual, le solicitamos que le reenvíe esta carta.
